Level II water quality

Water is one of the most commonly used solvents in the laboratory. In some cases, water content is more than 99% of the weight of a solution. Therefore, laboratory water quality is a critical factor in determining the quality and reliability of tests. Based on the quality of purification, water is divided into: Water quality level I, water quality level II, and water quality level III. There’s also a separate group of water systems for analyzers.

Merck water systems designed to supply clean water (water quality level II) use several treatment technologies. The resulting water is used in the production of buffer solutions, pH solutions, microbiological media and in these devices:

Ultraclean water (water quality level I) Milli-Q system

Clinical analyzers

Washers

SSt autoclaves.

To choose a proper water system for your laboratory, follow the following parameters: current daytime and clean water costs, water quality monitoring and certification level, etc.

Elix Advantage water purification systems

For laboratory systems requiring up to 300 l/day of clean water. The Compact Elix Advantage water purification system combines the modern technology of Merck Elix electro-deionising, the best water treatment technology with Progard prefilters and advanced reverse osmosis technology treatment with a 254 nm UV lamp. It supplies compressed water free from bacteria anywhere and at any time, whenever you need it. E-POD (point of delivery) is convenient and saves you laboratory space.

Elix water purification systems

For laboratory systems requiring up to 300 l/day of clean water. The Compact Elix water treatment system combines the most modern Elix electro-deionising technology with the best water treatment technology – Progard primary treatment filters, advanced reverse osmosis technology and a 254 nm UV lamp.

Elix 20/35/100 water purification systems

For laboratory systems requiring up to 4000 l/day of clean water. Merck ensures that all the components of its systems are designed and manufactured according to the most stringent requirements. It also ensures that the entire treatment system will meet the performance levels required for an efficient system.

Elix® Essential 3, 5, 10, 15 water purification systems

For laboratory systems requiring up to 300 l/day of clean water. Ideal for laboratories usually requiring a cost-effective water system that reliably supplies high-quality water of purity level 2. Elix patented electro-deionising technology is combined with other water treatment technologies, such as primary treatment, reverse osmosis, UV lamps (UV Essential Elix® systems) to produce high-quality water of purity level 2 with constant, reliable, high water parameters. An Elix® electro-deionising module always means very low cost and predictable operation, as well as low water and electricity costs.

Elix Gulfstream 35/70/100 water purification systems

For laboratory systems requiring up to 2000 l/day of water. For laboratories that are looking for an “all in one” system, the Elix Gulfstream system is a great choice. Its compact systems on wheels are designed to supply clean water to remote compressed diffusers or other laboratory equipment (glass washing, automated cultural multimedia equipment).

RiOs-DI systems

For low daily consumption (up to 10 l/day). For laboratories that are looking for an alternative to individual distillers and small deionization cartridges, a RiOs-DI is a simple, cost-effective and easy to use system.

Milli-DI systems

For low daily consumption (up to 10 l/day). For laboratories that are looking for an alternative to individual distillers and small deionization cartridges, Milli-DI systems are simple, cost-effective and easy to use.

Water storage tanks

For a high instantaneous demand for clean water, most clean water systems require a water tank. Merck has developed a variety of tanks, but all of them meet one basic rule – the water quality must not deteriorate.
